    Curled toenails and scaly toes

    Thank you for the help!! I have been so worried. I will definitely try to trim them! She’s such a sweet hen I don’t want her to suffer!

    Curled toenails and scaly toes

    Thank you for your advise! I appreciate it. In your opinion it’s not something I need to separate her from the rest of the flock for is it?

    Curled toenails and scaly toes

    I need help. My 9 month old barred Rock hen has started limping and her toes and toenails are curled. I don’t know how to help. No vets around here see chickens. I have added vitamin b2 to their water. She eats Dumor layer feed with access to grit and oyster shell. I clean out their coop daily...

    Curled toes and limping

    I have a hen who I just noticed was limping and then realized her toes are curled and kind of gross looking (for lack of better wording?) I don’t know what to do for her. Do I need to separate her from the others? She is less than a year old. She eats Dumor layer feed and has access to grit...

    Cleaning after quarantine

    I have two coop/runs. Right now I have a few sick chickens in the smaller run. I am getting new chicks in February. My question is. How long do the sick chickens need to be out of the run before it is safe to put pullets in? I want to make sure disease or whatever is wrong with the chickens...

    Puffy eyes and diarrhea

    I have had three hens die in three months. They are only 18 months old. The first two I believe died of sour crop. The third... I have no idea other than she just kept loosing weight. No matter what I did she kept loosing weight. Now 7-8 of my chickens out of 11 are having unusual poop. Several...

    Bloody beaks

    There were some dried leaves between the wire and the boards on the outside of the run. I just cleaned that out. But other than that nothing tempting on the outside of the run. inside their coop has nothing that I can imagine would cause it either. maybe there was a critter in the leaves that...

    Bloody beaks

    Hi have three 10 week old barred rocks. One was having bloody poop so I have been treating them all for Coccidiosis. They have been on corid for 5 days. Today I noticed all three of them have cloudy beaks! Help! I have attached pictures of them as well as their feeder and watered. I don’t think...

    Coccidiosis?

    The bird is 10 weeks old today. She is a barred rock. Thank you for the dosage information. I had only put in 1/2 tsp of powder per gallon of drinking water. do you have a recommendation on how to individually direct dose her with the powder? (That is all my Store had available) Thank you for...

    Coccidiosis?

    I am pretty certain this is coccidiosis. I just bought Corid to treat. It only seems to be one chicken, as the past two mornings only one pile of poop in the coop is bloody. My question is do I isolate her and just treat the one who is showing signs or go ahead and treat them all? There are...

    Limp comb and shell-less eggs

    My flock is 13 months old. I noticed last week that one of the hens comb is limp and she seemed to be uncomfortable. (Standing alone, leaning forward and feathers fluffed) I picked her up and took her out of the run to examine her. I found this half out of her vent. (Picture of white thing in...
